William Hague, according to David Cameron. Not sure I agree or that many on here will either.
I'll start with Sir Geoffrey Boycott. Any others?
-
No other living Yorkshireman comes close to Sir Geoffrey - end of thread then
COYR
-
Dickie Bird?
-
Geoff for me too. Miserable, sour, misogynist, awkward, opinionated. A fine man.
Of course, King Arthur has to be there or thereabouts.
Having said that, William Hague has metamorphosed from awful teenager creaming over Thatcher to something resembling a decent bloke.
-
William Hague, should be stripped of his Yorkshireman status, for throw his lot in with the bullingdon boys. How can Thatchers love child even be considered a Yorkshire man, never mind great
-
He's one of the best. A real good politician.
-
Seb coe?
Brian blesseid.
I do like and respect W Hague. Bet the rest of the uk can't believe he's a Yorkshire man! That alone makes him a good un?
-
ISnt Boycott a Man Utd fan? That counts himout.
William Wilberforce or James Cook
-
When exactly did either of the above 2 come back to life?
-
Same time Boycott did :)
-
Palin for sure.
-
David Hockney and Alan Bennett into the mix.
-
Hounslow
Hockney would be in the running for Greatest Professional Yorkshireman. Wonderful artist but an odious caricature of a man.
-
Brian Blessed, Sir Geoffrey, and Michael Parkinson.
-
William Hague, top yorkshire man, and top politician.
Ran rings round his opponents

Yeah i loved seeing him sat beside Stephen Tompkinson on Parky as ST spoke of his love of the South Yorkshire miners he met during filming of Brassed Off,never seen a more uncomfortable politician on on tele

Yeah.
That General Election he won in 2001....What a performance!
-
Greatest Living Yorkshireman.
Surely it's a joke and the PM had his fingers crossed when he said it?
He would be around the bottom of the list for me slightly higher up than Peter Sutcliffe.
-
Patrick Stewart,Bean, Palin, Christie, Paul Rogers. So many to choose from.
However, it must be me.
But if it was PERSON and living or dead, Bronte would have to be in there, ALL of 'em.
-
I heard an old lass on the telly today saying that she'd put Sean Bean above Hague.
I'd put Mr Bean above Hague. And he's not even from Yorkshire.

He's not even the greatest living Yorkshire popman.

Dont say he used to drive that Alpine pop lorry!

Quite embarrassing I know, but we've blown him out for a richer sugar daddy! :blush:

Have to say though that unlike some after the last 2 pre seasons he certainly isn't mine :thumbdown:

-

I'll poo poo on that one
-
Yorkshire Person?? (Or must it be man?)
If not I'll throw Diana Rigg in to the mix. Emma Peel in those outfits are still the stuff of dreams.
-
If we're talking Yorkshire 'person', I'll raise you a Sheridan Smith. Mmm....raise....Sheridan Smith.....did you see what I did there...
